Warlock of War: My Ares System

I had fallen back onto the island, or maybe I was just straight-up teleported. I didn\'t know as I fainted as soon as the harsh reality hit me… It was almost embarrassing how much luck I have… AND THAT\'S NONE! I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO LUCK! SERIOUSLY!? SAND!? 

Letting my small temper tantrum roll out, I let out a long sigh of exhaustion, despite me being miles deep in dark and polluted water. It was a bit strange that I could breathe and act pretty normal down here as I had no skills that allowed me to breathe underwater. But, as I had nothing else to go off, I brushed it off as the work of Beelzebub. 

For the next few hours, I focused on recovering. Instead of absorbing the dark energy around me, I decided to just circulate mana, increasing the rate of my regeneration and mental fortitude. This caused me to calm down and allow me to really think and plan out my next moves. 

And once all of this was completed, I stretched out my body a bit and opened a portal right in front of me. The unknown beyond this swirling mass of darkness was a bit intimidating, yet with a push of curiosity and excitement, my legs carried me through. 

…

I had woken up once again. For some reason, as soon as I stepped through my portal, I had passed out in an instant on the sandy beach of black sand. And with a mouthful of grainy rocks and eyes disheveled by the raging winds, I pulled myself upwards. 

"Huff… huff… huff… strange… I feel… better? The pressure prior was nowhere near as bad as before… why?" I muttered to myself, attempting to rack my brain but only came to a single conclusion. "Welp, I\'m nowhere near as smart as Orion so why even bother brainstorming? I just need more information."

Polluted black waves crashed against the receding black beach. At the very end of the sandy beach was a small patch of rocks lining the very bottom of a cliff face. From where I was, the cliff face had to be at least a couple hundred meters tall. 

Immediately deciding against climbing the cliff, I began to walk around the base of it. I walked up and down the beach for an entire, but the only thing I ended up realizing was that it led right back to where I came from. It was a circle, meaning we were on some type of island.

"Huh? What is this?"

Starting his influence on a remote island, he worked his way across the vast ocean, slowly building up his power through hardships and nearly impossible-to-win battles. Yet somehow, his fate took him further than he could have ever imagined. By the time he had reached his peak evolution, unable to progress in systematical power any further, he had conquered 28% of all oceans. With a benevolent tongue and smile, he ruled over his kingdom with the mentality of an angel.]

"What? Hey, Beelzebub, are you there?!?" I shouted, the only response shooting back at me being my own words echoing off of the tall cliff face. 

Upon clicking my tongue I decided against doing anything else. I had no choice but to climb up the towering cliff and so with gritted teeth and determination flowing through my veins, I pressed my hands up against the hard stone wall and…

…

(Three Hours Later) 

"*gasp*... *gasp*... *gasp*..." 

Everything was burning from the inside out. My chest felt like it was about to explode, nearly painting this rock surface with my very own organs and blood. My arms and legs felt as if they could give out at any moment as they strained to even stay together. 

"Ugh… finally…" I wheezed, clawing my hand out over the top of the cliff face and gripping onto firm soil ground coated with a layer of prickly grass. 

"Who are you?" An innocent face suddenly poked over the edge as my vision got blurry. With long blue hair and pupils like that of a glowing golden star, I was immediately taken off guard, causing my grip to slip and all the exhaustion in my body to ravish every inch of my nerves. 

Shit… [Complete Shadow Magic- 

Before I could activate my skill and save myself with the last remaining bits of my extreme mental fortitude, my hand was caught by the young woman. With an impressive showcase of strength, she yanked me upwards, throwing me across the grass and causing me to slam against the trunk of a tree. 

"Ugh… Fuck…" I muttered, rubbing my back and shooting upwards as the woman\'s footsteps quickly approached me. But before I could even get a good look at her, her entire body flashed with the silhouette of an all-powerful being, the mana in her body practically exuding like the explosion of a mana nuke.

I couldn\'t move. The pressure coming off of her was so intense that I nearly pissed my pants. And with each step that she took toward me, I felt my already weakened bones creak… and then they snapped. Every single one of my limbs snapped in half, forcing me to unleash a blood-curdling scream. 

[Beezlebub\'s Authority reigns supreme]

"Huff… huff… huff… you asshole demon lord…" I muttered, too exhausted to even get up. Even as the dirt below me pressed into my face, and even as the grass tickled my skin, I didn\'t get up. My bones had been completely shattered and although the insane pressure from before was gone, my body had no choice but to shut down. "Shit… I\'m going to… faint again…"
